On extremal additive 𝔽 4 codes of length 10 to 18

Christine Bachoc, Philippe Gaborit (2000)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

In this paper we consider the extremal even self-dual 𝔽 4 -additive codes. We give a complete classification for length 10 . Under the hypothesis that at least two minimal words have the same support, we classify the codes of length 14 and we show that in length 18 such a code is equivalent to the unique 𝔽 4 -hermitian code with parameters [18,9,8]. We construct with the help of them some extremal 3 -modular lattices.

On Fully Split Lacunary Polynomials in Finite Fields

Khodakhast Bibak, Igor E. Shparlinski (2011)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We estimate the number of possible degree patterns of k-lacunary polynomials of degree t < p which split completely modulo p. The result is based on a combination of a bound on the number of zeros of lacunary polynomials with some graph theory arguments.

On sets of polynomials whose difference set contains no squares

Thái Hoàng Lê, Yu-Ru Liu (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Let q [ t ] be the polynomial ring over the finite field q , and let N be the subset of q [ t ] containing all polynomials of degree strictly less than N. Define D(N) to be the maximal cardinality of a set A N for which A-A contains no squares of polynomials. By combining the polynomial Hardy-Littlewood circle method with the density increment technology developed by Pintz, Steiger and Szemerédi, we prove that D ( N ) q N ( l o g N ) 7 / N .
